Tiny vga
About the Tiny vga PCB
Tiny vga is an open source PCB design by mole99, published on GitHub under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 40 × 33 mm, with 30 components from 9 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the 74LVC245APW,118. By type, the board carries 26 resistors, 2 connectors, 1 IC and 1 capacitor.
From the project
Tiny VGA Pmod board designed in KiCad
Tiny VGA is a Pmod peripheral designed for Tiny Tapeout, but can of course also be used with any other Pmod compatible hardware such as certain FPGA boards.
View the schematic online using KiCanvas!
Tiny VGA only needs one Pmod connector to work. This means if you choose to use the output Pmod of the Tiny Tapeout PCB to connect to Tiny VGA, you still have the bidirectional and input Pmod available for other purposes.
